Wow, how cool is this?! Kudos to Glenna for her Happy Accident and Jenny for the great tutorial. Have a wonderful day everybody!
I looked for several days for the perfect layer cake quilt pattern for my nephew’s wedding, and almost gave up. Then I found this. It was spectacular! Many thanks!
This is my favorite video from Missouri star quilt co because I followed Jenny's easy instructions and made a quilt for my mother in law. She loved it so much that she dug out a family heirloom unfinished quilt that her great grandmother had started, her mother had worked on, she had worked on it and she asked me to finish it! A hexagon quilt that spans five generations, can you imagine?
That's fantastic!!!! I'm very pleased you were able to be part of your family's history
What a wonderful story! ♥️
@@JesusisKing222 iiiiuuuuu
Actually I can imagine an "old" quilt piece. When I first got inspired to quilt, I was leary of all the cutting so I got one of those precut kits, and yes, it was a hexagon! Now I purchased it ages ago from the old Joann's before their expansion into everything crafts and household items. This thing could be 10-20 years old, it has crossed several state lines, and it is still packaged and intact. I guess this is the year it sees completion. Who knows, maybe I'Il alter the usual scheme and come up with something new
That’s awesome! I have one too! My mom named it “Generations”. My great grandmother, great aunt, grandma, and mom worked on it. Mom finished it and I will add an appliqué, then pass it on to my daughter who hand embroiders. Hopefully one of my granddaughters will continue the tradition!
Oh my, I see a wonderful Patriotic quilt using Red/White/Blue. Also a Christmas quilt using greens and reds.
Than you!
Me too. I want to make a quilt for a friend of my son who was badly wounded in the military. These disappearing designs have made my quilt making so much faster.
Ginny, You've really outdone yourself with this one! OUTSTANDING!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow. Thanks Jenny for showing us Glenna's mistake which became the disappearing hourglass. It's beautiful. !!!!!
I taught this to my nieces when it first came out ...now all these years later, i found it🎉 thanks again Jenny
Thank you Jenny Doan for not charging us anything to learn from you. You have given so many of us valuable lessons and new hobby to be involved with. God bless you Dear Lady
Just so you know Jenny Doan... you are the epitome of 'one of the cool kids'... Such a great tutorial and I just love the little out take! Hugs honey and thank you!
I HAVE BEEN RUMAGING THRU ALL THE MSQC VIDEOS AND FOUND THIS ONE TODAY. WHAT A TREASURE THIS WAS TO FIND. SUCH A PRETTY BLOCK WITH ANY FABRIC. THANK YOU MSQC.
Whenever Jenny switches hands to cut with the rotary cutter, I praise her ninja like cutting skills.
I’m camping with hubby this weekend and brought the quilt I have been working on. I finished the top all but the quilting. So I wanted to start something else. I watched your video but only had a charm pack to play with. It made a really cute mini block. I think I will make a table runner with them. Thank you for giving us this very easy and pretty star.
Most of my quilts have been made for charity, with the majority of them being for kids. This was the first pattern I made which was not for charity or for a child. My best friend loved it! My tiny secondary hourglasses were not perfect at all, but it was a labor of love and great practice for the second time I make it, which will be now for my elderly aunt. What a fabulous pattern! Thank you, Jenny!
OMG ....YOU ARE AWESOME. Thank you Jenny 💕.....I watch all your video love them .
I think I may be related to Glenna in Idaho. I would be sewing along and mine wouldn't look like any of the others in a class, either. I'm glad you came to her rescue. What a great block. Sew easy. Did someone ever say that making a mistake is only our creativity wanting to get out? If not I claim it. Now off to my layer cakes. Thank you Jenny. Love your videos.
I think we're all related in that fashion cj2sew!!! Love you right back!
Hey Michelle! We are so happy that you love the tutorials! I bet Brazil is gorgeous!
I'm from New Zealand and make quilts for people with on going illnesses for free. I love your patterns and your so easy to follow. Thank you.
A very good teacher easy to follow her tutorials
love this quilt! Thinking of making with my charm packs. Wish me luck!
Yes Jenny... I am one of your professional pickers!! LOL. When I started that random Scrappy quilt made of the pinwheels I made 5 going one way and 5 following the Colorado quilt pinwheel fan style. After Mom passed... I took 5 blocks all apart and resewed them to be the uniform design all one way!! LOL... Yep Professional Picker here!!
What is a professional picker? I'm new at quilting.
I made one of these using the patriotic colors and showed it at my quilt guild. Everyone loved it. More Quilts of Valor were done using this pattern in the next couple of months because, everyone wanted to make such a pretty quilt. Thank you Jenny, really love this quilt too.
hi i'm Danielle fromBrazil! thank you so much for sharing this project! Perfect
Oh my lands! How have I quilted all these years without knowing this. Quilting is going to be so much funner now than ever before. I can not wait to get started.
Have all my fabric, making this at our next retreat. Two colours, blue and white. Thank you Jenny
Hi Jenny, Gonna make this for my son in the Army. He loves to quilt as well and he will just have a fit to see this....looks sooo complicated..he will think I'm a genius to put this together...especially the small blocks in the center. Wish me luck! Maybe I will be able to show you a photo when I get it done. Thanks so very much for your instructions in this tutorial. You make quilting for me so easy. Love love love you. Ella in NC.

Hello, my name is Michele, I'm from Brazil and I watch all your videos and I love them all! Thank you very much to share with everyone!
I need to make this one.for my mother in law .Thanks Jenny.You are marvelous.
Jenny, you totally ROCK! !!!! KEEP EM COMING! Simply love your tutorials! !!!!
At about 9:30 in the video when the star came together, I literally covered my (very wide) mouth and exclaimed, "well, isn't that something?!?" I love it!
This would be really pretty in Christmas metallics!
The colors and patterns are amazing on the quilt hanging...simply gorgeous! Love the story on how this quilt came about. Hurray for Glenna!
I like your tutorials better than anyone else. I love the look of this block.
Thanks, Jenny, for another fantastic tutorial! I love this. Jenny has such a knack for making something that could be so difficult into something so easy!! It's a real blessing that she is so willing to share her "secrets" of easy quilting. Can't wait to try this one!!
Oh my, you've done it again! You are just amazing. What a beautiful quilt from something so simple.
Thanks Jenny! Love the pattern, love the quilt you made, too. Just love watching the cool ways you make blocks.
Hugs
Love the first disappearing hourglass quilt. Thank you so much for showing us how to make it. Blessings!
Thank you so much for being on you tube. Your videos are very inspirational and fun to watch. I watch one and have to force myself to finish the last quilt before I start a new one. You make it so easy.
I love this and Jenny is so priceless..ty for always teaching me fun ways to quilt
Luv luv luv!!! The possibilities are screaming in my head to be used!
Thank you for the instructions
I just came back from a quilt retreat in Maine for the weekend, the girls were doing this block and showed us how to do it, I am going to try it!!
This is my favorite pattern. I just finished one . I got my fabric from y'all to. Thank you for sharing!
I am starting a Quilt of Valor this evening using this design . Thanks again Jenny !
This is absolutely my favorite tutorial. The explanation is so clear and the finished quilt is really lovely. Jenny demonstrates that different fabric choices will produce vastly different quilt personalities, but this pattern will allow them all to shine.
This is so beautiful, ordered the fabric, can't wait to get started. . .have learned so much from Jenny, road trip to the store is on the bucket list!!!
My goodness. Eight years later and this is still an awesome quilt pattern. I decided to use this pattern for my third quilt (yes, I'm a new quilter) and it is turning out so beautiful. All of my blocks are sewn and I'm starting to sew them all together now This has been so easy to make and I'm already looking at other fabric collections to make another one. I think this would look fantastic in a solid color as well. Thank you Jenny and for the lady that made the "mistake" in the beginning to give us this great block.
Hi Jenny, My minister's wife saw this quilt I had made and just flipped! So guess what they are getting for Christmas? I showed her your tutorials and now she is hooked too. Keep making these tutorials and we will keep sewing...just to keep up.Thank you.
+ella prevette that is so great! They are going to love it :)
This pattern will make a stunning quilt of a layer cake of small stars and snowflakes that I have been saving until the perfect design came along. You have done it ! Thank you for making it so simple !
I love watching your tutorials Jenny!! I learned lots from you, thank you so much!
I am amazed, again. The quilt on the back is gorgeous.
I find my mouth hanging open when I watch your videos! I made the disappearing 9 patch and it turned out great! This one is next! Thank you!
I love "disappearing" block patterns and this one is just beautiful. So clever... I can't wait to try it. Thanks for your videos Jenny, they are so much fun and they encourage me.
It is one thing to know how to quilt, but it is entirely another thing, Jenny, to know how to teach so that it is simple for the learner. You are indeed an excellent teacher! A Retired elementary, middle school and high school administrator.......
I have been waiting & watching for the "perfect" quilt pattern for my favourite Tanya Whelan Fat Quarter bundles - FOUND IT! Oh my gosh, this looks SO easy and Jenny always manages to show how to do the quilt blocks in such a fun way! ;) Her confidence gives me (a fairly new quilter) the confidence to try out the patterns from MSQC. I showed this video to my hubby and the moment he saw it he asked when was I going to get started on it, lol. I also have a Fat Quarter Bundle in Civil War fabrics that I may use on a second quilt as well.
Can't wait to start ~ Thank you MSQC! I'm so excited, and the best part is my cutting time on this will be cut in 1/2 because of my fabric cutting system, so the layer cakes won't take me any time at all to get cut & ready to sew. In fact, I'm going off now to do just that ;D
OOMMMGGGG! The best block design ever. I really have to make it.
This is my favorite MSQC tutorial, because it shows how to make a complicated-looking quilt from one simple block!
Love this quilt and will certainly enjoy making it. Thank you Jenny for sharing your wonderful talent, once again!
Wow!! I just love this! Thank you Jenny for another amazing tutorial. You have so many that I want to give a try. I really must clean my craft room so I have
space to start a quilt. Anybody else have that problem? Lol!
I love all of your disappearing block quilts. I can't wait to finish the disappearing pinwheel and do this one.
It's a really hard choice with so many great tutorials, but this is my favorite!
I totally love this quilt design and a lot easier than it looks, thank you soooooo much Jenny.
I love the colours in this quilt plus the use of the hourglass. Beautiful.
I just love this, Jenny. Can't wait to make one. Thanks, so much.
Just lovely. I also liked the one that you created with moving just a couple of blocks. I think that makes a pretty block too. Thank you so much Jenny always for your great tutorials.
The colour=way is my favourite, and I love it! Thanks Jenny
Out standing block, enjoy watching your tutorials. You're one very talented lady. Thanks

I Love this quilt! I just heard about it at my Quilt class on Tuesday and it is great!
I just made this quilt block to see it for myself and it is soo pretty!!...thank you again Jenny!!
Wow, this is brilliant!!! Thanks so much, Jenny! Can't wait to make this one!
Wow Jenny, brilliant! Really as surprising and easy doing as the disappearing pinwheel.
Thank you so so much.
Just checking some older videos, and came across this old one that I loved. I have a layer cake to use up now, so this pattern will be just perfect for it! Thanks Jenny for another gorgeously easy tutorial👏🏻🥰
That is just TOO cool! So glad I was directed to this video from my Facebook group - QAYG Beginners
Awesome Jenny - another fab quilt idea. Can't wait to start this one - no cutting of itty-bitty little pieces, just sew and turn. I sooo look forward to Friday mornings to see what you have come up with next, and this one is another "darling quilt" as you would say!
Awww, thanks so much Liz!
love this pattern and tutorial. Jenny takes something that could be complicated and makes it so simple.
Wow!! Jenny what a fantastic block. I just can't wait to try it. I just love that you don't use too many pins and just get on with it and sew. So refreshing
I'm always looking for easy patterns. Thank you Jenny
I absolutely love your tutorials! Thank you for all the great ideas! I work at a fabric store so you can imagine how many ideas I need to use all the awesome fabrics I end up buying! :-)
Hi Jenny, and all the other with you. I just want to let you know that you have made me inspired to make things that I never thought I could do it. I have made 3 purses, and a big bag. First time I watch you was the jelly rolls race, and that was my first project. And now getting ready to make the disappearing hourglass quilt. And yes I am just an beginning person. But with the way you teach is so understandable and easy to do. And also with my hard of hearing, Jenny, I could understand you very well. I want to thank you very much and keep up with the good work!
This is a gorgeous block--and it's fun to see you switching the pieces around so the star appears!
Jenny!!!!! This is amazing here I have been cutting all these little pieces together in the past and here you have taken this block and made it so much easier and faster!!
Again thanks, now I am collecting Jenny's patterns with her own folder.
Love this! Just finished my disappearing pinwheel in red and white, gorgeous. Can't wait to try this! Thanks!
How cool! Love these disappearing block patterns! Thanks for sharing!!
Love this guilt. Beautiful colors. Went to my stash of fabric and started making this one. Looks really beautiful so far, can't wait till its done. Thanks for the great tutorial.
How is your quilt coming along?? :)

I am not a traditional quilter at all but, I had to try this. I had the pieces on the design wall while I was working on one of my art quilts. I absolutely loved it as a background. So now instead of making myself a bed quilt it is part of my art quilt. That means that now I have to make a bunch more blocks and buy some more charm packs. Win Win. Thank you
From UK. I just love watching you Jenny, Your Awesome! You have ignited my new found passion for quilting
I think it's awesome the way you sew and cut and turn and end up with the most beautiful block. When I was trying it out I ended up making a changing pad for my cousin!
Beautiful block, it looks like we need to have rocket science to make it, but in fact so easy, it is just what I love. Thank you so much Jenny for sharing.
HA! That should be our new tag line: No Rocket Science Required! We can't wait to see yours chantalida53!!
I love civil war fabric too and I'm only 16 and I've already made my first quilt I made one for my mom for Christmas and she keeps it on the foot of there bed. I sewed 6" blocks together then added a border it's a queen sized with embroidery on it
The best yet!! I love your tuts and especially this one! Can't wait to do this! thank you so much!
I'm so loving these "cut up" blocks!!
This quilt is amazing, Jenny! Love it!
Amazing quilt! I love this one. I will bookmark and use this pattern when I am ready to start a new quilt. I have a lovely layer cake called LOL, which should work well. Thanks Jenny.
So glad you liked it, Tracey T! Hope you'll share it with us when you're finished!
I love this quilt because it has the look of classic complicated piecing but is so easy to make. I have seen it in a two-color combination and plan to do it that way myself. Thanks Jenny, and thanks to Glynis that stumbled into it!
I MUST try this! I am a blue lover too and the colors on this are divine!
I love this tutorial. I'm making a king size version for my bed using the Atelier line. It's turning it gorgeous!
😃
This is a great quilt and I love to watch you sew Jenny. For so long I have tried to keep myself from having those very slight wavy seams, but seeing how you sewed this I realized that your hands move like mine do and you have minor waves in your seams too. What a relief. Now I can relax a little more. Thanks.
Love this quilt can't wait to try it out. Your tutorials are the best. I enjoy watching and learning from them. Thank you Missouri Quilt Co. Your awesome!!
I absolutely love this quilt. The colours are beautiful and the pattern looks so complicated but you make it seem so easy Jenny. I have posted this to myself so I don't lose it as this is definitely my next big project. Thank you so much for your generous sharing of your talent and ideas. I'm an avid follower.
absolutely love this. Can't wait to start it!! Thanks Jenny ur the BEST!!
I fell in love with the disappearing pinwheel. Fickle person that I am I have a new love It is the Disappearing Hour Glass. Fabulous.
Another great one! Looking forward to making this. Thanks Jenny!!!!!!!
